Anyone had this, 4 miles from Reading. It was worse before I took the screen shot with no track at all.

Seems like your computer isn't fast enough. HST at 125 MpH? There have been several reports about this on various forums.

I don't think it is my computer as it only happened for about a mile of track. The rest of the track was ok at 125mph.

OK, so probably a glitch. The UE4 engine needs a lot of graphics to render and will perhaps miss out once in a while?

Have you tried the fix we're all used to from TS20xx? I'm thinking of a file verification.

Yes, did that and no files needed to be downloaded again. Thanks Tom. :D

Not sure whether I noted here or at TS, this program seems to be chewing a lot of virtual memory or swap file, if the amount of HD activity and the difficulty launching any other app immediately after exit is to go by. Makes sense that this constant file swapping may be producing a lag or indeed complete failure to correctly render the scene in game, too. Thinking back to CSX there was a theory postulated the physics going bananas was a result of processer and memory cycles trying to keep up with everything else so something had to give. On GWE you are also generally travelling much faster than CSX so everything has to happen that bit quicker, too. Just a theory and over to DTG what they're going to do about it!

Yes a few on UKTS have encountered this issue too at various sections of the track. I have contacted DTG about this issue also with the screen shot.
